Mistakes as Gifts

You’ve likely seen or have heard about an infamous introduction speech at the 2014 Academy Awards.  John Travolta made a mistake.  Thank goodness!  So many moments that go well in life go unnoticed.  This occurrence generated more joy, with people messing up their own names, on purpose.  See slate.com’s Travoltify Your Name meme or the Broadway marquee for If/Then.  The world is now a slightly better place than it was prior to the blunder.  And Idina Menzel?  More people now know who she is!  When we can get over ourselves and our own mistakes, we can create a win-win-win.
